They should sign this boy. He will bring back the greatness they once had in their lineup.

Why do they have a shot......$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$

Tex, Dustin, Youk as the infielders of the Sox in 2009. the future looks bright...

Of course Boras knows how to play the game..........

He would be a great addition. But I am not sure they will want to play the salary game as much as Boras will demand.... I don't know. It will be an interesting offseason. I'd be surprised if he signs somewhere before the winter meetings...

money money money moneahhhh... MUNEAHHHH!

This chump is about to get paid!

Exactly. As of late, they are the NEW NY Yankees

Boras' clients don't 'rush' or 'jump' into things....
He'll go where the most $$ is....period.
- and why not?
whatever team at this point is willing to throw the farm at him
is obviously a contender.....he isn't getting a big offer from
say- the Pirates- so whether he goes to Anaheim, boston, ny
what does he care.......

I see, a bad moon a rising.....

I see troubles on the way...

I just don't get it... Very good player? yes. Great? I don't know....
Over his career he averages about 150 games/year, 33 HR, 111 RBI and a .290 avg. Great numbers, but not for the money that most are anticipating he'll receive. He wants Manny money, but he'll be 29 in the spring and has yet to show "Manny" numbers. No way this guy's worth $20 mil/yr., but then again... are any of them REALLY worth the cash?
There is no logic in pro sports contracts.

You forgot his gold-glove defense and the fact that he hits from both sides of the plate.

So the article should really read: Why every other team out there has a shot at Teixeira.

Morning everyone. Jr see the new rankings lol.
